Dominic Raab outlines the deal

[BlasterBates]

UK government to hand the EU a blank cheque

It is now abundantly clear that the UK-EU agreement will be sufficiently vague that the EU will be able to pocket the money before the reality of the deal is clear.

[WTFH]

Yes, but spun correctly, "blank"<£350,000,000

[Yorkie62]

Did he say the cheque was made out of paper or rubber?

Yay, Brexit dividends:
A return on investment when most of us are dead.
- Jacob Rees-Mogg

Merely "adequate food supplies".
- Dominic Raab

The return of the death penalty.
- Sajid Javid

Well, a return on investment for us proles in 50 years, JRM’s now-Dublin-based investment vehicle should have a return much quicker than that. As will Banks, Ashcroft, Wigmore (Belize, not British), Farage (Germany and/or America), Lawson (France), Redwood (“move all your investments offshore”), that other twunt who got a Maltese passport, etc etc. No pattern here then.

Adequate food supplies, medicines, isotopes, and “products of human origin” I think it went. Don’t get sick in 2019, and if you have cancer or are a haemophiliac then better get your own supplies in.

Death penalty was next after blue passports, no surprise there, it’s what the gammons want.

Even if all the above turns out to be horsetulip in the end, this is coming directly from our sitting government. Not really how a responsible government should be acting.

Merely "adequate food supplies".

To be fair, food in the UK has only recently become adequate.

He is no longer in charge though. So who cares what he thinks.

He’s the Minister for Stockpiling, that’s what he’s in charge of.

Besides, “not being in charge” has never stopped gammons caring about what JRM or Farage think...

[WTFH]

He is no longer in charge though.

Who is?

Who is accepting responsibility for Brexit?

Several of the people who voted for it aren't accepting responsibility - blaming the EU for Brexit, blaming the EU for the failure of the UK to produce any documentation or turn up to negotiate, blaming the EU for giving out EU passports to people, then when the number of EU passport holders migrating to the UK it changes to blaming the EU for not forcing the UKBF to do it's job, blaming the EU for well, pretty much everything.

So, who is accepting responsibility for Brexit? If no one in the UK is, then Brexit is whatever the EU wants it to be, because no one in the UK is prepared to accept responsibility for Brexit.

I think the Brexit negotiations should be about agreeing a fair deal for both sides as Britain leaves the EU. Unfortunately that's not what the daily wailers want.

If you think the Commission wants a fair deal you'd be quite an optimist. No doubt Merkel has called Teresa and told her Raab needs to go. Has power moved abroad already?
